Chapter 1362 Cap 1360: The Children of Eclipse part 3

.𝒎

When my eyes opened I was in a place I’d rather forget existed, it was a forest whose trees had mournful faces and the skies were red with a large eye for the Sun. A familiar figure was walking towards me, his way of moving seductive and provocative, not to mention that damn mocking smile on his face. “What have you been doing with my daughter?” (Callidora) “I can’t explain…” (I) “I can’t trust an average explanation from someone as impulsive as you, I’m going to find out what I need from your body and Soul.” (Callidora) She was already directly in front of me, her arm crossed my chest and spread tentacles inside my body. This took mere seconds, but the strange feeling of having someone touch her organs and her Soul was unsettling. As soon as she removed her arm from inside me, she snapped her fingers making the world around us disappear leaving only a black and shadowy space. “Zenos, Zenos, you damn bastard, why do you have to make things difficult for me?” (Callidora) “I still don’t know what the problem is, as far as I know, I haven’t been involved with you since I left Hell.” (I) Suddenly I felt immense danger, then a pressure seemed to crush my Soul as if there was a giant hand squeezing my Soul that was only resisting due to the power of the Essences. “I still don’t know what the problem is, as far as I know, I haven’t been involved with you since I left Hell.” (I) Suddenly I felt immense danger, then a pressure seemed to crush my Soul as if there was a giant hand squeezing my Soul that was only resisting due to the power of the Essences. When I opened my eyes Callidora was in front of me, her hands were around my neck while her eyes were empty, immersed in darkness like the one surrounding us here, her mouth seemed to have grown several teeth as she smiled predatorily at me. “I don’t like unforeseen circumstances and I like risks even less, you almost ruined my plan.” (Callidora) “I’ve been trying to form a connection within physical realities for longer than your Universe has existed and when I finally find a way, you dare disrupt my plans!?” (Callidora) I couldn’t speak or move, all my power, Aura, Authority, and even my Essence were frozen as if Callidora’s hand was an eternal Seal, but at that moment, perhaps because of my survival instincts, my will emerged, driving the Essences inside me making this power flow into one of my hands that I use to punch Callidora in the face. “Child, it seems that someone has learned to be rebellious, I have to teach them how to behave…” (Callidora) “Stop, stop, stop..” “…” (I) Suddenly a blurry hand appears from space as if it were an illusion holding one of Callidora’s shoulders, this took her by surprise and gave me the chance to use my will to boost my Essences once again making me let go while I stay away, during that brief second of the hand disappears and Callidora looks back at me with her normal appearance from before. “I’ll let you go this time, but she won’t be born now.” (Callidora) Callidora touches my chest where the Blood Core is, then a terrifying energy pierces my body and Soul invades my Blood Core and disappears into the egg where Niryna is waiting to be born. “Child, it seems that someone has learned to be rebellious, I have to teach them how to behave…” (Callidora) “What.. what did you do?” (I) “Her Essences are interfering with her, if she is born like this her bond with me will weaken or transform into something else, I can’t let that happen.” (Callidora) “You did this and you’ll be the one to fix it.” (Callidora) I was still suffering from what she did earlier, but ignoring my state she brushes a finger on my head transferring various information into my mind. It was information about an Evil God sealed in a certain place, information on how to free him from the Seal, and what I should do when I obtain his Divinity Fragments. “Do you understand…do you understand that I cannot…choose my Essences?” (I) “You have a lot of room for maneuver, so stop with the excuses, you will never find a Complete Essence that matches your Familiar, I have already given you the method to use several different Divinity Fragments, so do as I will.” (Callidora) “I will strengthen your Soul to bear it, so don’t take too long and don’t do shit.” (Callidora) Without hearing anything she snaps her fingers and I wake up lying on the grass watching the starry sky, I was lying on someone’s legs and when I saw it it was Ynes’s legs. ——————– Pov Elsaris: I was looking at the place I must invade, that place was a mountain hundreds of meters high carved as a fortress for the Dragons in this world, an attempt to imitate the Dragon castle of Arash, an attempt that only has appearance without the presence that that ancient place really possesses. “How are we going to do this mission?” (Samira) “We’re going to exterminate a Tribe of True Dragons, so we’re definitely not going to attack head-on.” (I) “I know, but I don’t think even you can hide from the senses of so many Dragons.” (Samira) “You underestimate me, sister, I may not be able to hide like I usually do, but there are ways to bypass the Dragons’ perception.” (I) Saying that, I pick up two bracelets made of crystal that seem to contain a real night sky inside, these two bracelets are a set with engravings of a Sun and a Moon together. I hand one bracelet to my sister and put the other bracelet on my wrist, then a wave of Aura and Holy Power runs through my body funneling inside me. “These bracelets, are they made from our Father?” (Samira) “Yes, they are Sacred accessories made with the Father’s scales, they have the effect of completely hiding our presence as Aura, Authority, energies, and vitality.” (I) “But to maintain the effect it constantly consumes Holy Power, so remember to always keep some of your Holy Power.” (I) “Okay, but what do we do next?” (Samira) “Come on, I’ll explain while we break in.” (I) My sister and I used the items, and at that moment the energy that previously sank into my body. “Let’s go.” (I) On the way I explained my plan to my sister, I don’t want to fight these enemies head on and to begin with, I’m still not sure if I need to fight these Dragons or not, it’s just strong suspicions as far as what the Demigod who brought us here said. As soon as we entered we started looking room by room in this castle, just doing a quick review of each room while looking for clues about the Apostles of Truth, on the Path we saw some Dragons, their Auras didn’t seem to have anything wrong and their appearances both Dragon and Their Human appearances were normal, none of them had the abnormality of the Apostles of Truth. It was only at the end that I found a clue, some Dragons had a trace of that abnormal Aura, some had faint traces while others had Auras that clearly didn’t belong to Dragons. By following these people we managed to find certain previously hidden parts of the Castle and also identify several enemies After a few hours we fled outside the castle where we plan our next step. —————— That night I returned to the mountain castle once again, this time with very different objectives, my sister and I walked through the already marked rooms. A Dragon is not easy to kill just like the Apostles of Truth who have strange bodies making it difficult to kill them, so I was well prepared. In the end, everyone is still living creatures and that’s why we have the advantage, in the first target room there were only two people, a Dragon in Human form and an Apostle of Truth who looks like Haku, a male version of Haku. I wave to my sister where she will take care of the fake Haku while I go after the Dragon, as soon as one makes the first move the other follows almost at the same time. My dagger pierces the neck and I force deeper until my hand is inside the neck, then use more Holy Power to spread the bracelet’s area of ??effect. “< Blood Curse: Blood Burn >” (I) The Dragon tried to fight, but the attack took him by surprise, delaying his reaction time, when he tried to go against me he no longer had his full strength. The Curse that I used with my Authority inside his body, marked his own heart, and his blood became a flame that burned his vitality, I couldn’t let this energy leak and there was no way to consume all this energy, so I will be in a Blood Crystal to use later, my sister did the same with her target. When we finished, the Dragon I fought against was mummified, his body was dry with the skin outlining the bones, but the one my sister fought against was more like a puddle of rotting flesh. I nodded to her and we continued, all those who clearly seemed to be on the side of the Apostles of Truth died, we took care of the weakest ones first and now the time has come to find the 3 Dragons who are really strong. I exchange a look with my sister, I know she doesn’t want to fight them, but she is naive for thinking that I would fight these 3 head on, I leave this part of fighting more to our other brothers, I touch her hand to use a mental link. “(Now let me tell you the second part of the plan, I’ll call it a double ambush.)” (I)
